The diver is also provided with a small basket, or bag, woven like a net, which he takes down to the bottom and fills with the oysters as he collects them ; the rope is attached to his body, the end of which is held by the men in the boat. This rope he jerks when he wishes to be drawn, up. While five divers are coming up, five are preparing to go down. When the diver reaches the bottom, he throws himself on his face and collects all he can. If the bank is rich, about 150 oysters can be taken in... each dip ; if, however, the oysters are scattered, not more than five to ten. The Arab can remain submerged for about ninety seconds, Avhile the Moor or Tamil rarely' exceeds seventy seconds. The former wears a nose compressor but the others scorn the use of any such help. The THE PEARL FISHERIES OF CEYLON. 93 diving generally begins at sunrise, and continues till the sea breezes or west winds set in. The liours of work do not exceed six. The men enjoy the labour as a pleasant pas- time, and never murmur or complain.
